AMON
Little is known about the mysterious leader of the anti-bending revolution. He wears a mask to conceal his face. He is a nimble, stealthy fighter who shows no fear even against the highest-level bender. His ultimate goal is to rid the world of bending.
NAGA
Korra’s polar bear-dog is her loyal companion and main mode of transportation. Historically, this creature was feared and hunted by members of the Water Tribe. Korra is the only person ever to have tamed one. Naga is very protective of Korra, and has learned how to use her strength to help Korra out of perilous situations.
PABU
Bolin found this cute fire ferret scrounging for food on the street and rescued him. He’s a mischievous little fellow, always getting into things he shouldn’t. But Pabu has gotten Bolin out of plenty of sticky situations with his agility and sharp teeth, and more often, he’s been Bolin’s partner in crime while playing practical jokes on Mako.

This is a lovely illustration done by Evon Freeman, who worked on Korra as part of Nickelodeon’s new artist fellowship program (sort of like a paid internship) last year. You can see her amazing work here and here.
